Anyone hear of resumption of Aeromexico service to/from San Diego/Loreto??

I haven't heard anything. I'm pretty sure they haven't resumed yet, I haven't seen their big jet fly over.

I thought they were done for good with that flight. Have you heard that the cancellation of the route was temporary?

Someone said that when they halted the service it would resume 18 January. Expedia doesn't know about it, and you'd think they would by now.

When I took the next to last flight in October, the ground personal in SAN told me they thought it might resume after the first of the year, only with smaller equipment. Maybe Aero Literol (sp?). Hope so, I realy miss that flight.

On Dec. 18 Delta just opened up L.A. to Loreto and I was on the first flight. I took the American Airlines shuttle from San Diego and the price of the shuttle was included. I tried to go Aeromexico and they wanted $900.00 with a 5 hour stop in Hermosillo. The increase was probably because of Christmas but still is expensive anytime Aeromex. I paid $350.00 round trip S.D-L.A. Loreto---and return.

The problem with the Delta flights is the schedule, which is more or less the same as Alaska's. With flights departing Loreto in the afternoon and arriving fairly early in the day, it is impossible to travel without overnight layovers.

Better connections could be made to points farther than LA if flights left Loreto in the morning and arrived in the evening, as the Aerocalifornia flights did.

How did you book that? I tried Expedia, and their Delta offerings are waaay higher.

Yes, please.... The best I have found from way So. Ca. is to fly TIJ to La Paz on Avolar and bus to LTO. You have to have the time...but you can grt flights for less than 100 us one way. www.avolar.com.mex

Probably depends mostly on the dates, but delta.com shows LAX-LTO at $278 R/T incl taxes for Jan 29-Feb 1, for example. Another $100 with connection from SAN though.

Also $278 on Alaska Airlines. I prefer Alaska's 737 to Delta's small airplane.
